The temperament of heavy metals

I still remember that I accompany the Russian customers until 2 am, from the barbecue booth to the KTV private room, beer bottle by bottle until the private room only left us who were middle-aged.

Silence, it's the beer tonight and Shengge. The others are gone, and he can finally sing all the songs from Lincoln Park in the system, and there are other heavy metal rock that I don't know well. He ordered me to follow the lyrics. The last two international friends who lived far and wide missed the past rock and roll years in the middle of the night. It was full of emotion.

Like all inspirational movies, the beginning is always lonely. It's just that the four protagonists live in small towns in Finland. As members of heavy metal bands with distinctive temperament, they often encounter more criticism and misunderstandings. Obviously taciturn, apparently mediocre at work, and obviously riding a bicycle that is about to fall apart, but because of his long hair and black body, he was ridiculed by neighbors gays and questioned by drug abuse.

The four people rehearsed in the slaughterhouse opened by the members for twelve years, carefully maintaining the unbridled happiness. Until one day they encountered a beautiful misunderstanding, a chance to participate in a Norwegian heavy metal concert. Then they received respect and admiration from their neighbors, and were ridiculed again after the misunderstanding was clarified. The drummer accidentally died, and they finally decided to go to the Norwegian concert. During the period, they encountered a lot of obstruction and finally successfully held the performance.

Compared to others, heavy metal rock is always paranoid and has received more criticism. The scenes of the movie comedy are very restrained, and they are often reflected in a serious second. The climax of the last half an hour starts to open up, and the jokes and madness fly together.

I like this movie very much. Not only are Finland and Norway as the main production areas of heavy metal bands, but the movie has many stalks that make heavy metal music lovers feel the same; and the inspiration in the movie is not how hard they work to improve their professional level. Instead, try to get out of the small world where you live, and try to chase your ideals without giving up.

Sometimes to make peace with reality is to face it bravely.
